• Overview: Do you have a passion for working with children and families? New Hope is looking for compassionate, dedicated people in the York County region of SC who want to empower youth and families by creating strength-based behavior change that will be sustained long after treatment ends. Would you thrive in a supportive team environment? Learning and growing every day? Working with a small caseload of families? As an MST Therapist at New Hope, you will receive ongoing team support, training and supervision in the Multisystemic Therapy (MST) model as you work holistically with families, youth, their communities, and other key members of their ecology to implement MST. Extensive research has proven the effectiveness of MST. MST therapists work in close collaboration with all involved to address the needs of youth who engage in problematic and criminal behaviors, and, in some cases, substance abuse. In this role, you will empower families to address problematic behaviors and to help their youth ages 12 - 17 make life-transforming changes. Treatment progress is made through intensive interventions such as changing unhelpful family interactions, addressing the youth’s problems with peers and in school, and increasing social support, to name a few.
